Two clever British historians take a break from their usual fun, perceptive takes on The Battle of Hastings, and The Napoleonic Wars to look at pop music. 
 
It’s full of fun moments, like their gentle argument about Brian Jones and John Lennon’s relative guilt as woman-beaters:

Tom (a Lennon fan): “Well, yes, and that (Lennon beating his wives and girlfriends) was the defining struggle of his life….”

Dominic (less of a Lennon fan): “Oh, right, and so he’s the real victim here, yeah?”
